They still have 43 players in camp. There can't be 17 players on the bubble! Perhaps, they want some players to play in Arizona, so their regulars can be rested prior to opening day.
Are there any famous radio broadcasters anymore? There are some long-time broadcasters like Brennaman and Hamilton who gained their fame when radio was a more important medium. Then there is Jon Miller whose fame was aided by his time on television. And every Yankee broadcaster is going to be famous even ****ty ones like Sterling. But I think it's really hard for a radio broadcaster of the last 20 years or so to be famous.
Dickerson is the best.
Another player that was nowhere near McGonigle's level as a prospect. I am not one to pump up prospects. I think fans overate their prospects way too much and that the majority of them fail. Some of them have a high probability of succeeding though and McGonogle is one of them.
Everybody knows he is unproven and might disappoint. Not all prospects are the same though. He's not Ryan Kreidler nor Pittaro.
Pittaro was never a top prospect. He had a .696 minor league OPS. Sparky Anderson just liked him and decided to pump him up. I think it might have had something to do with Anderson noticing that the championship team was not as motivated as they should have been in Spring training and he wanted to shake things up. Surely he knew that Pittaro was not the next big star.
